Reds' Gavin Lux: Sitting against lefty

Lux isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against Milwaukee.

The Reds will keep Lux and his career .554 OPS against left-handers on the bench Thursday with southpaw Nestor Cortes set to start on the mound for the Brewers. Santiago Espinal will get the nod in left field instead and bat eighth.
